BeRom Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 SI posted it's top 40 players for the 2016 Draft. Assuming Atlanta drafts a DE in the 1st or 2nd round, these are the players in their list: Joey Bosa #1 (not going to happen for Atlanta) DeForrest Buckner #4 Shawn Oakman #8 Emmanuel Ogbah#20 Shiliqua Calhoun# 30 Your assessment of these and, perhaps, others.

Lornoth Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Are we replacing Vic already? Because if we're not, and we're drafting a DE in the first round, he needs to be a lot heavier than any of them, except maybe Buckner. Think 3-4 DE.

Desert_Falcon Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I really hope we go o line first, unless it's a reach then we go D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clark Kent™ Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Outside of Bosa, i'm not in love with any of the top DE's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romfal Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 if Myles Jack is available he should be the pick. We need a difference maker at linebacker and dude can cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vel Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I like Ogbah, Lawson, Bullard, and Buckner. Bullard isn't a true DE, but he would make a good base end in our scheme. Ogbah and Lawson are heavy handed rushers who stop the run and rush the passer with equal efficiency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJC28 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Kelly the C from Bama is the man starts here day 1. Floyd from GA could play any where we need him starts day 1. Edited January 2, 2016 by JJC28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwifalcon Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I really hope we go o line first, unless it's a reach then we go D.I hope not I'm really hoping that is soughted in FA and the first 3 picks in the draft are defense.C,G,DE in FA achieve that it opens a lot of possibilities up in the draft.

youngbloodz Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Hope we go LB in the first. We need to sign Charles Johnson or Mario Williams imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was Scho and Beasley rushing from that most the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FentayeJones Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Given where we pick in the first I like Reggie Ragland, Deforest Buckner, A'Shawn Robinson, Shaq Lawson and Laquon Treadwell; not in that particular order and it also depends on what we do in free agency.

Atlantafan21 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Hope we go LB in the first. We need to sign Charles Johnson or Mario Williams imoWho exactly would draft at #19? Other than Jack and Jaylon no one warrants a top 20 pick. I'm not in love with Ragland like some here, personally I wouldn't draft him with out pick. A pass rusher makes the most sense at where we select. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashbrown3 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Wow, the first 5 OLB choices for this draft class are pretty nice. RANK PLAYER POS. POS. RANK SCHOOL CLASS HT. WT. PROJ.

We need to sign Charles Johnson or Mario Williams imoI was thinking Vernon myself but it matters little too me just get a LDE who provides more than run stopping on 1st and 2nd down and I'll be good.

Sidecar Falcon Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 At our pick in range I doubt anyone of the top tiers will be left. If I were to make an assumption as to who was left at our pick that could fill a DE role it would be Nkemdiche. He has a versatility to him that makes him an asset, but he does come with some baggage. I can honestly say I am more confident in Quinn's ability to deal with these types of players than Smith's. If Quinn is sold, I'm sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monolith2001 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 1. OG2. DE (Lawson maybe?)3. LB4. WR7. PK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantafan21 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 1. OG2. DE (Lawson maybe?)3. LB4. WR7. PKI don't think Shaq Lawson is dropping THAT far unless something happens during the draft process. Switch DE and OG around. We can find just as good of an OG at our second round pick.

thanat0s Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Our OL and MLB needs are much bigger than DE. If you're going to bring in one, just figure out a deal with Mario Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1989Fan Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 We really need a great MLB. The great defenses past and present had an athletic game changer at LB.Car has KeuchleySea has WagnerBal had LewisChi had UrlacherEtc....then we need a great WLB to cover the field (like L. David, who was a round 2 pick)Man, our LBs stink.Draft a stud @ MLB, sign Marc Barron for WLB, keep Reed at SLB, or get Irvin to replace him.There are tons of combinations to fix our LB situation between FA and draft this year (thank God).As for DE try to get a 3-5 year deal w Clayborn. The coaches finally realized he just needs to play end. He is as good an option as any. I would rather have Clay at 3-5, than Mario at 8-10. Johnson would be another option if he gets cut.

ZoneOne01 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Best defensive player available. Solid interior offensive linemen can be had outside of the first round. Edited January 2, 2016 by ZoneOne01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
